Ooh, now that one is actually appealing, Brandon. Nice chawan, dood. You finally found an artist who doesn't drink on the job. :P

I must have this.
This is the matcha bowl, not the sencha sized chawan from Zencha.

Looks like something Space would pelvic thrust for.

You are right, having the cup in two sizes would be pretty classy.
Unfortunately Space and I have the same tastes and there are only a scarce few items available to US consumers. He needs to steal my Hagi yunomi or yohen Hokujo kyuusu so we can even the score - both still available on AN!

I am expecting to lose this auction, but I still really like it.

I. Want. That.

Seriously...if you ever do see a chawan like that somewhere on the internet, send me a link. That's exactly what I want.

If I lose the auction, I am thinking of sending the picture to Toru and see if he has seen it around. If he can find one, I imagine he could find 2 or 3.

I feel like this would be a good place to comment that I hate 99% of all chawans.

Don't fret Chamekke, these two are still on the market:

And there's this for 4,800US, fit for Hideyoshi's golden tea room:

It's safer to post items out of one's price range here anyway... ;)
